What's the best grass catcher to use with this reel lawn mower? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I don't use a grass catcher. You have to mow when the grass is not high at all, because the mower can't handle much growth. So the grass pieces are so small, it blends in. This is a small mower, you need to mow often. Regards.

We use this mower without a grass catcher and let the mowed grass stay on the lawn. It is such a small amount of grass that it blends in quickly and does not cause a problem. Kathy Summers

I manually thread my Black & Decker GrassHog from the reel. Doesn't take too long, maybe 2-3 minutes. This line is strong, too.

I agree with the others that it is not easy. I only used the catcher once since it is very small and fills up quickly. I ended up getting the mulching kit and have been very happy using that.

I avoid using it on wet grass, doesn't work well and I am already dealing with lumps and bumps. I have been very pleased with the Fiskars. Does what it says it will and I actually enjoy using it.

If I remember right the only thing to put together on it was attaching the handles. As far as putting on the grass catcher, which I have not done yet, I used it to mulch. And the battery slips right inside. Pretty easy.

Mine didn't even work well with mulching grass and I removed them. Purchased a John Deere sweeper which solved the problem.

I have used it with my Toro, and my Bolens, and the instructions show you how to adjust the height for all tractors. My son wasn't to happy that I bought the sweeper, he said that the bagger worked better, but after I set it up he now enjoys the sweeper, it evens sweeps the driveway and it can pick up the acorns and mulch, work great.

I didn't need to buy any attachments for it. It fit right under the plastic hood that my grass catcher bags came with. I just slip it over the lip on the grass catcher housing and cinch up the drawstring. It has never come off no matter how heavy I have filled the bag up.

I agree w T. Waltz. This bag is for gardening waste, weeds, branches & grass clippings but NOT as an attachment to a mower. Please, call Tori to obtain the correct model/part #, then return to Amazon to see if it's available. GOOD LUCK!

I own a Snapper Z355 26 HP zero turn and use my Mojack monthly. The mower is well over 500 pounds, the Mojack lifts it with ease and oncethe locking pin snaps into place, your set to go. for people who might be a bit scared to be under the mover working, jack stands provide a bitmore safety. I have had my Mojack two years and if used correctly, it is an amazing tool. How I worked without one helps me appreciate howwell it cuts down my work time. A 500 hundred pound tractors are no match for a Mojack Lift. Go for it, it's worth it!

Bolt the handle on, place the catch bag on its framework and place bag on mower. Very simple and takes a very limited amount of time. Took longer to break down the box for recycling.

I purchased this for a mower that I obtained and I thought the mower used a bag, it turns out my model does not. The model I have is only a mower and no catch system. However, I do have a side discharge mower that does use a side out bag such as the one your asking about. So judging by the construction of the item, I would say that if you know your mower is definitely one that has a side discharge and uses a catch bag, then this will most likely work. The item comes with instructions and it does not take more then 20 minutes to assemble the item. This of course is assumed you will analyze directions and take your time.

no problem charging on US electric. the grass catcher stays on very well during use, but comes off with nearly no effort when you need to empty iy. the blades have not gotten stuck on me yet under electric power, but when using as a non powered push mower they do bind up from time to time in thick grass. I have no idea where to get the battery. i did see one here on amazon for $150 (wow). I do need a second battery as the main battery is not enough to cover my whole lawn. i get about 2.3 of it done. i don't know the exact size of my lawn but it is typically about an hour mow from start to finish no problem charging on US electric. the grass catcher stays on very well during use, but comes off with nearly no effort when you need to empty iy. the blades have not gotten stuck on me yet under electric power, but when using as a non powered push mower they do bind up from time to time in thick grass.

My Husband uses a big, heavy, gas powered Ryobi while my son and I use the Worx. Can't tell the difference! Our lawn grows with runners- so if a section hasn't been edged in a while my husband's more powerful edger does the job more quickly, but if it's been maintained my Worx edger gets through it no problem! My yard looks great & it's light enough to handle easily!

Yes! I have a different variety of grass in each separate area of my yard, and the reel mower does especially well in the areas with thicker grass like St. Augustine.

Depending on the size of the yard, I am not sure how well it would work with grass clippings. The issue with the bagger is that it becomes very heavy, and that results puts a significant strain on the cords that are fastening to the mower. I've struggled with my bag, as it has become more of a pain to keep it fastened tightly to the mower resulting in just as much time as it does just to empty my double bagger.

Go to any big box store and look at any mower--the blades are not sharp. That's why many people prefer a reel mower. Reel mowers actually cut grass. Rotary mowers more or less just tear it off.
